You don't need bzgrep or what ever....just bzcat /ab/def/sd/blah.bz2 | grep yay Or if you want to use the cases above, a "| grep yay" should be more than enough...plus you get the colors in the results. It does get a little annoying when you want to use grep for all files in the directory, but nothing a little for loop cannot fix: for i in /path/to/dir/*; do echo $i; bzcat $i | grep yay; done > > > -- > ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._. > Felix Finch: scarecrow repairman & rocket surgeon / [EMAIL PROTECTED] > GPG = E987 4493 C860 246C 3B1E 6477 7838 76E9 182E 8151 ITAR license > #4933 > I've found a solution to Fermat's Last Theorem but I see I've run out of > room o > >
